Heres a port of a decent looking Jet Set Willy type game for the Nintendo 3DS, heres the release notes:

Locomalito‘s game L’Abbaye des Morts has been ported to the Nintendo 3DS by JeffRuLz! It’s written in C using the libctru and citro3d libraries. The gameplay is directly inspired by Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy. This port seems to run fullspeed!Story:

In the 13th century, the Cathars, who preach about good Christian beliefs, were being expelled by the Catholic Church out of the Languedoc region in France. One of them, called Jean Raymond, found an old church in which to hide, not knowing that beneath its ruins lay buried an ancient evil.

If your on Nintendo Switch firmware above 3.0.0 then the homebrew launcher isnt for you yet but heres somenews that will excite you:

The ReSwitched Hacking Team has done it again. motezazer, ktemkin and SciresM have achieved code execution on 4.1.0, the latest version at the time of writing this, via deja vu at TrustZone level. This means devices on 4.1.0 and below will be able to gain access to the whole system. SciresM strongly advises to not update in the future.

After less than a year, the Switch hacking team has moved extremely fast and now have got full access on the latest version. The progress being made is incredible, and in comparison, the 3DS took around 2 years to get ARM9 access. The scene is looking very promising so far and we are very lucky to have such talented people working on the Switch.

If you are on 4.x or below, you will be able to gain access to the whole system's hardware. Users on lower firmwares will get CFW first. If you're on 4.0.0/4.0.1, just update to 4.1.0.

The Nintendo Switch News is coming at a rediculous pace, heres news of Linux running on the Nintendo Switch:

It's been a very active week for the Switch scene, and thanks to Fail0verflow, there's yet another new bit of progress to report. After teasing a possibility of Linux running on the Nintendo Switch, a week later, the team has released a video showcasing it in action. You can check the Tweet below to see the video, and talk about it in the discussion thread as well!

Im just about to mod my modchipped Xboxs with bigger hard drives and put a load of games on them, heres a great article and video from one of the emulator greats from the Original Xbox Scene:

Back in the early days of the original Xbox Scene, newcomer 'Lantus' entered the homebrew world with his port of the SNES9x Emulator releasing it on 'xbins' and the rest is a massive history of more Emulators and Homebrews, and now he looks back at the wonderful start of the Xbox Scene with his latest retro video which is released below.ModernVintageG said:

My story about how i became involved with the original Xbox modding scene, who I was back then and how I wrote some of the most popular homebrew and emulators for the Original Xbox that you've probably played before!

The exploit is browser based and currently works with firmware 3.0.0. After installation the Homebew Launcher can be started by accessing the 'Album' icon on the Switch. The installation requires DNS settings hack pointing to either external HTTP server or your own local one.

Im a massive fan of emulation across many systems and heres some awesome news of a ultra small gaming system, heres the news:

The Nintendo Switch homebrew and hacking scene is thriving at the moment and heres a news story about Linux running on the Nintendo Switch:

he Switch scene has been on fire since the 34c3 talk, with Team-Xecuter soon afterwards demo'ing a coldboot logo change exploit, and then later on Team Fail0verflow showing off their 'coldboot scroller' and now they are teasing yet again with Linux boot-up!

Fail0verflow have stated a month ago that they have a bootrom exploit on the Nintendo Switch, which virtually gives them full control of the console. It’s likely they’ve spent the past few weeks or months porting Linux to the console. The hacking team are very familiar with the process of porting the popular OS to consoles: most flavors of Linux running on hacked PS4s are based on their patches.

If history repeats itself though, it is possible that Fail0verflow will release their Linux patches, but not the underlying exploits. In the case of the PS4, the scene had to wait for more than a year between the time Fail0verflow released their Linux port, and the time they revealed the exploits they used to get access to the system.
